Sounds scary.

Now they’re saying it may have been a bird strike.

Same thing happened at MSY a couple years ago with a US 734 except on that one, they hit the bird on the runway and did a high speed abort.

Stayed here a couple days while they changed the engine at the gate, then flew it out.

Yes, birds obviously prefer to attack Airbuses - look what happened in New York.
